Spray with WD-40.Rusted bolt on fuel filter, how do i loosen it up to change filter without breaking fuel line? 99 cavalier?
Use the WD-40, and the right size socket wrench. Tap the bolt as you apply the pressure with the socket. That helps get the oil back in to the threads where it is binding. Works most of the time. Good Luck.
WD-40 soak it, let it sit, spray again, then try again
Find flare nut wrenches the approporiate sizes, these will work the best with line nuts. Apply some lube and let is sit overnight.
